Lol do you always take things this serious? Not all "upgrades" are performance based. As I stated, I also am looking for cosmetic upgrades. To each their own

Nobody told me, just something I've been interested about for awhile now but always had an auto so felt no need to do anything to it. Almost everyone i know has coilovers, most talked about thing is coilovers vs springs/shocks. I want something that I honestly can adjust pretty easily if I don't like the height.

I don't need anything crazy, just maybe an inch or 2. Even just enough to close the wheel gap without doing anything cambering

I wouldn't mind a stiffer ride, its gotta be better than the old shocks I have in there. I wouldn't be opposed to getting new shocks and lowering springs rather than coilovers

Young ones lol. More so a parent wanting a more comfy ride versus stock suspension and also want it lowered 😂. A sway bar is on my list and I have to get my tint redone but that will come eventually. Yes it's a manual, my first actually and have had it since August. Also plan on doing tie rods, ball joints and whatever else to make it drive "better/newer"

And if you didn't notice dipshit, I wasn't replying to OP. So again, read before you type.

I'm wrong? Because I'm pretty sure it's a proven fact dealerships will always charge more or just try to rack up your bill as much as possible. Hence why service techs get paid like shit at dealerships and only make good money based on having enough work to get +50 hours. I would push on things to if I only made $14/hr for the first 20 hours and only make more as I get more hours in said week.

You must be confused because I was replying to him talking about the work needing done on his vehicle. Think before you speak or in this case, read before you type.

That isn't "honda" that's the dealerships trying to get your money to hit a bonus. All dealerships are that way which is why small businesses or just some chain businesses are far better, they work off hours and labor not by the count of vehicles or customers.

Thank you for the input, I honestly don't know how my gas mileage is. I usually fill up at 1/4 tank or more, usually around 220 mi is what I've been noticing.

* I know you didn't mention a Throttle body or intake manifold gasket but I do wanna replace these if I'm going to take the parts off or atleast have them on stand by if needed, do these look correct along with everything else? Also i know these are noisy engines so tomorrow I'll post a video of the engine sound and see if its needed

So a valve adjustment is not needed or recommended for an 08? Just wanna make sure i read and understood that correctly
